We just re-elected Barack Obama to be president of the United States for another four years. Just over half of the country is thrilled with the outcome and just under half is sick at their stomach. Now, with a minimum of time allowed for celebration or mourning, the conversation has shifted to our real national problem. We cannot afford several entitlement programs that are currently in place. We've made promises that we cannot keep. Our economy is on life support. Our federal debt is presently increasing by $100 billion per month, $3.3 billion per day, or $40,000 per second.
